Etienne de Crecy – Future Music Festival, Wellington Square – March 1
Getting on the bill? We have been in contact with Future Music Festival for a long time. This is the first year where I think my live show is big enough to come and do the festival.
Best festival story? The really funny stories you can’t tell to journalists.
Worst festival story? I had a big technical problem at a concert in Belgium. In my cube I have no contact with anybody so I was like ‘shit I need a new cable’, so I had to phone to my manager and say to bring some cable. In fact, the new cable didn’t fix anything, so I had to do the show by changing around cables from one machine to another.
3 things every punter should bring to Future Music? Their feet to dance, their ears to hear the music and their eyes to see the show.
Do different countries have different strains of electronic music? In fact, no. Boyz Noise, Bloody Beetroot, Justice, they are from different countries, but come from the same direction.
Where did the cube concept in your show come from? The cube was imagined by an architect collective called Exist. I said I need something visual for my live show and they made this structure, this cube. Then we worked together on the picture we would project on it. We just tried to explore all the possibilities of how we can make this cube move.
